Enhanced kinetic energy entrainment in wind farm wakes

Large eddy simulation study of a wind turbine array with kites

Wake effects in wind farms are a major source of power production losses and fatigue loads on the rotors. It has been demonstrated that in large wind farms the only source of kinetic energy to balance the energy extracted by the turbines is the vertical transport of the free-stre ...
